What version of Go are you using (go version)?
$ go version
go version go1.21.0 windows/amd64
While this doesn't seem to be version-specific and appears to be an intentional design choice, it is unexpected behavior.
Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?
Yes
What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?

What did you do?
Spreading a slice of interface compliant types into a function expecting variadic interface parameter results in an unexpected IncompatibleAssign. Directly passing the interface compliant types to the function as comma separated arguments compiles fine.
